Reverse description The xoanon or archaic cult statue of Hermes Perpheraios depicted enthroned, rendered in a rigid, hieratic style consistent with early Greek cultic imagery. The figure is shown frontally seated upon a throne, with the Greek ethnic legend ΑΙΝΙΩΝ inscribed vertically to the right of the statue. A goat's head in right profile appears in the left field, serving as a secondary type associated with the Ainaean coinage. The composition reflects the city's deep veneration of Hermes as its principal civic deity.
